This is a really funny article. They, liberals, are complaining about ballot stuffing in a non-scientific poll.

So, I guess if it were something, say like the Presidential Election of 2012, and 4 million “Deepers” (we’ll call them) stuffed the polls with fake ballots, there wouldn’t be a problem?

They sheepishly admit their BS online push polls aren’t scientific, but THEN decry the inevitable pitfalls of the results. Ha! What a bunch of lazy effing idiots. They want to do their cheating the lazy cheap way - just get ‘their’ sheeps to vote, not our people. It costs too much to do it the right way: Hire a BS polling organization to go through the motions, think up a bunch of duplicitous leading questions, and then have the staff writers analyze the results to fit their preconceptions.

Ping. Way to go, Dynachrome!

[dforest]

LMAO! They get more clicks to their hogwash site. They just don’t care for the results.

Typical liberals.

A vote, straw vote or referendum can only be valid if the outcome is to their liking.

If not, they ridicule and belittle their opponents and demand revotes and recounts until they get a result they like.

FYI..the author is the same clown that O’Reilly skewered on his show a few days ago because the paper supports the decision to NOT pass Angela’s Law..this clown says tghat the present laws are more than adequate.

[SaxxonWoods]

That right there is funny.

This is really funny stuff:

So, you're probably wondering, if the polls are easily manipulated and non-scientific, why run them? Primarily because they engage readers in our product and, at some level, force people to think about issues we think are important.

They complain about online polls being manipulated, then admit they manipulate the public into viewing their "product" and "thinking" about issues that the newspaper thinks are "important to them."

I don't know the last time I read such a load of BULLSH*T in my life.

I agree wholeheartedly with this statement:

Online polls are, at best, informative. They are not — and should never be considered — statistically valid on the order of a scientific poll. Like many things you find online, they should be viewed with skepticism.

[SandRat]

They are upset at us for FREEPING a pole.

[Right Wing Assault]

But the poll's result — with 70 percent of respondents favoring a ballot measure that would overturn a ban on high-capacity magazines — is largely insignificant.

Guess what, Denver Post? ALL online polls are insignificant. There are few of them that are not stuffed by one side or the other.

If you had a poll that said, "Have you ever voted in an online poll, including this one?" at least 25% would say NO.
